The basic idea was, to stop the hero from winning a level by controlling the traps. But we had only time for one kind of trap and one level ;)

Cool graphics! Too bad you weren't able to make more content, though.

Interesting concept, but the lack of sound did make a difference. Also, the gameplay wasn't very interesting... I suggest working on that first, before graphics, next time.

@dwrensha wow. thats really very similar from the game concept.

I think it's a great start to something that could be really amazing!

great idea and lovely art style!

Obviously the game could have used a few extra days of finishing up :)

I liked the graphics and particles and this kind of game reminds me of death run on counter strike XD

Too bad you couldn't get more done, it is a cool concept.

Interesting gameplay. Few bugs with the text display, though.

Good game, just lacking on the content.

The graphics and animation are the best part about the game. It's really short, though, and I'd like to see more gameplay. If you get the timing right with the first trap, you just outright kill the dude every time, which gets repetitive. But good work, I'd like to see more!

I'm really not sure what's going on here. Maybe slowing the hero down for the first level would help, not sure.

Nice concept, would love to see a fuller version of this game!

Not too shabby! But it really wasn't that hard, and I had some issues with the text: it staying after I had beaten the game. The concept could be fun, if expanded upon!

You should make it more obvious which spike I'm using. Add a red border?
The pixel art is very good.

Too easy, and there's a few bugs when displaying the level, but it's a neat idea!

I suggest making it more challenging.

Sometimes I thought the controls were a little confusing- might want to make it more obvious which spike is selected

cool idea, but it needs more content :P

Great concept! I would have liked to have seen more level variety but what you have is pretty solid! Keep those level designs coming! :D

Graphics were great. Was much too easy. Needs audio and depth.
